Micro:

The newer card is the one in the regular PCI slot, I think that it is called PCI Express because it is a video card that works in the older slots.

FAH sees the original card and I posted the error messages in response to Sun's inquiry. It is installed in the number one slot with the video card configuration (PCI X 16). Sorry, been out of the loop for a while, but it is what you are referencing.

Ahaaa!!!!!!!!

THAT may be the problem with it not folding.

That card requires a PCI X16 slot in order to work.

It's all about BANDWIDTH in those slots (the speed of the transfer of data) and a regular pci slot is not designed to do the work that Video card's requirements are.

I looked up the card. It shows it is indeed a pci x 16 ver. 2.0 card.

Glad to hear about the CPU being an 8 core! That is awesome!

DOES the other video card fold for you. the newer one?
